Doctoral
Sudeep Prabhakar Ingole	Ph.D.	Mechanical Engineering: Interdisciplinary Program
B.E., Visvesvaraya Regional College of Engineering, Nagpur (India), 1999 M.E., Indian University of Science, 2001 Thesis: Nanotribological Characterization of Dynamic Surfaces Research includes three fundamental areas: utilizing an atomic force microscope (AFM) to study the nanomechanical and tribological properties, to understand friction and wear at nanometer length and to study wear mechanisms of boride coatings for biological applications. The multi-scale wear study was focused on fundamental wear mechanisms for boride coatings. New wear model was proposed. Major Professors: Dr. Hong Liang and Dr. Ataur R. Chowdhury
Christian Psoch	Ph.D.	Engineering: Environmental
B.A., University of Applied Sciences (Germany), 1994 M.A., Berlin School of Technology (Germany), 2001 Thesis: Improved Membrane Filtration for Water and Wastewater Using Air Sparging and Backflushing Research goal was membrane flux enhancement for water and wastewater filtration. Successful applied techniques were air sparging (AS) and backflushing (BF). AS and BF combined was superior to the single application and generated the least filter cake. Lowest fouling was observed for AS. Major Professor: Dr. Silke Schiewer
